I’ve got a tip for the RIAA : I’m not interested in anything produced by their music pimps anymore.

To the MPAA : People are only downloading what’s already recordable from TV, stupid whingers

Well, now that big Movie’s are making record sales (a surprise considering how badly the US Economy has been lately), I would expect to see statements from the MPAA regarding how horrible of a year its been, but yet The Dark Night has shattered many opening night sales…

Sure this is fr only one movie, but lately the comic book movies have been doing well, several sequels have come and gone and done well. Again a surprise for how terrible the US Economy is at the moment…

To paraphrase Mark Twain:

“There are lies, there are damned lies, and then there
are Music Industry piracy statistics.”

I for one will never believe anything said by the Big 4
or their associates.

“TV stations and film studios, by contrast, are “sprinting through the stages of grief” —- and, “coming to terms with the reality that details of the illegal use of their material can, in fact, be very useful indeed”.”

If piracy of TV shows had been going on back in the 1960s, the BBC wouldn’t be missing episodes of Doctor Who and other historically important shows right now.

so this 20 for one figure is that one worldwide?

Because the german section of the mafiaa had (as far as I remember correctly) lately stated that a 10:1 ratio alone for german users happends in germany.

Which would mean that “we” are responsible for 50 percent of all evilness worldwide! Cool!
“Endlich sind wir Deutschen wieder wer!” Dictating the world by half!

hey jon, you definetly want to proof read taht one again,
Even me with myslef crappy english knowledge can’t make up what your crappy english could probalby mean here:

In reality, the legislation was bought-and-paid for and only one person —- a Minnesota single mother targeted by the RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America) the Big 4’s American enforcer —- has actually appeared in court. And her case will certainly be re-heard.
